Fresh figs are spectacular. Many out-of-state guests at Relish have never tasted fresh figs so it's always a treat to incorporate them into an event and watch their reactions. This crostini is a fun way to feature fresh, ripe figs and the combination of the salty, crispy proscuitto, sweet figs & honey, and peppery arugula is perfect.

To crisp the prosciutto, heat the oven to 400°F. Arrange the prosciutto slices on a parchment lined baking sheet and place in the over for 5-10 minutes until roasted (like bacon). Let cool (will get more crispy when cool) and gently break up into desired sized pieces.

Top each crostini with a pinch of arugula, a piece of fig and a piece of prosciutto. Drizzle with honey and serve.
